SMU Health Center Adopting Electronic Health Records

The SMU Health Center is pleased to announce that it has adopted a new electronic health records system called “Point and Click.” The secure system will launch Tuesday, February 26.

Now the standard for medical care, electronic health records have been shown to streamline and enhance care and communication between patients and clinicians.

After the launch of the new system, students visiting the Health Center may experience longer wait times as the staff completes the transition. Their patience is appreciated.

Later this spring, SMU students will be able to schedule appointments online, fill out patient forms online in advance of appointments, and check lab results and other communications from clinicians through the Health Center’s secure portal, Open Communicator. In addition, students will be able to send their patient records quickly and securely to other doctors and institutions.
